17、hologist told the mother he had attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD, and needed to be medicated with stimulants. If not, he would be sent to a special education facility near his school. Confused and frightened, Weathers says she consented to put Michael on Ritalin, a commonly used sti
18、mulant that doctors prescribe to decrease the symptoms of ADHD - restlessness, disorganization, hyperactivity. But Michael exhibited negative effects from the drug, such as social withdrawal. Instead of spotting the side effects, Weathers says, school officials again pressured her back to the psychi
19、atrists office, where Michaels diagnosis was changed to social anxiety disorder and an antidepressant prescribed. Finally, says Weathers, I saw that the medicines were making Michael psychotic, so I stopped giving them to him. When she stopped the medicine, the school reported her to state child pro
20、tective services for child abuse.Though charges were dropped, the Weathers case has become a symbol of the boiling controversy surrounding ADHD, treatment for it, and the subjective diagnostic tests that some critics say has led to an overuse of stimulants in schools. According to testimony given be
21、fore Congress in 2000, ADHD diagnosis in children grew from 150,000 in 1970 to 6 million in 2000, representing 12 to 13 percent of US schoolchildren.On the one hand, a recent study by National Institute of Mental Health, published in April, confirmed long-held assumptions that consistent use of stim
22、ulants mildly suppresses childrens growth - at an average rate of about an inch over the course of two years, in addition to weight loss in some children. At the same time, another part of the same study gave the use of medication a boost when it comes to the treatment of ADHD. The study showed that
23、 strict behavioral rules, used without drugs, were not as successful as treatments involving stimulants. They suppressed ADHD symptoms in 34 percent of the children tracked over a two-year period, while medication worked in 56 percent of cases.Yet if the study was reassuring to some who work with ch
24、ildren, it was alarming to others. The study helps prove that the country is only hearing half the story about ADHD, says William Frankenberger, a professor at the University of Wisconsin, who has been studying ADHD for almost two decades. If these medicines suppress growth, you have to ask what els
25、e they are doing that we cant measure.21.It can be inferred from the text that kids with ADHD are oftenA allergic to medicines.B absent-minded in class.C afraid of meeting strangers.D anxious about seeing the doctor.22.Weathers stopped giving the medicine to her son becauseA she sensed the side effe
26、cts of the medicine.B the doctor prescribed another new treatment.C the school psychologist advised against using it.D she was charged with abusing her son physically.23.The figures in Paragraph 2 indicateA the overuse of anti-ADHD medicines on schoolchildren.B the sharp drop of child-abuse cases in
27、 schools and families.C the total loss of confidence in school doctors among parents.D the drastic growth of ADHD symptoms observed among children.24.The study by National Institute of Mental Health suggested thatA the use of medicine was effective in treating ADHD.B kids on medication of stimulants
28、 tended to grow a lot.C it was more successful to discipline children with ADHD.D kids would put on weight quickly after receiving medication.25.The Wisconsin professors concern was thatA the government would not take actions to suppress ADHD.B the anti-ADHD medicines might have more serious side ef
29、fects.C teachers and doctors at school might neglect the kids with ADHD.D parents with ADHD kids could be discouraged by the study results.Text 2Pretty in pink: adult women do not remember being so obsessed with the colour, yet it is pervasive in our young girls lives. It is not that pink intrinsica
30、lly bad, but it is a tiny slice of the rainbow and, though it may celebrate girlhood in one way, it also repeatedly and firmly fused girls identity to appearance. Then it presents that connection, even among two-year-olds, between girls as not only innocent but as evidence of innocence. Looking arou
31、nd, despaired at the singular lack of imagination about girls lives and interests.Girls attraction to pink may seem unavoidable, somehow encoded in their DNA, but according to Jo Paoletti, an associate professor of American Studies, its not. Children were not colour-coded at all until the early 20th
32、 century: in the era before domestic washing machines all babies wore white as a practical matter, since the only way of getting clothes clean was to boil them. Whats more, both boys and girls wore what were thought of as gender-neutral dresses. When nursery colours were introduced, pink was actuall
33、y considered the more masculine colour, a pastel version of red, which was associated with strength. Blue, with its intimations of the Virgin Mary, constancy and faithfulness, symbolised femininity. It was not until the mid-1980s, when amplifying age and sex differences became a dominant childrens m
34、arketing strategy, that pink fully came into its own, when it began to seem innately attractive to girls, part of what defined them as female, at least for the first few critical years.I had not realised how profoundly marketing trends dictated our perception of what is natural to kids, including ou
35、r core beliefs about their psychological development. Take the toddler. I assumed that phase was something experts developed after years of research into childrens behaviour: wrong. Turns out, according to Daniel Cook, a historian of childhood consumerism, it was popularised as a marketing gimmick b
36、y clothing manufacturers in the 1930s.Trade publications counseled department stores that, in order to increase sales, they should create a third stepping stone between infant wear and older kids clothes. It was only after toddler became common shoppers term that it evolved into a broadly accepted d
37、evelopmental stage. Splitting kids, or adults, into ever-tinier categories has proved a sure-fire way to boost profits. And one of the easiest ways to segment a market is to magnify gender differences or invent them where they did not previously exist.26. By saying it is . The rainbow(line 3, Para 1
38、), the author means pink _.A should not be the sole representation of girlhoodB should not be associated with girls innocence C cannot explain girls lack of imagination D cannot influence girls lives and interests 27. According to Paragraph 2, which of the following is true of colours?A Colors are e
39、ncoded in girls DNA B Blue used to be regarded as the color for girls C Pink used to be a neutral color in symbolizing genders D White is preferred by babies 28. The author suggests that our perception of childrens psychological devotement was much influenced by _.A the marketing of products for chi
40、ldren B the observation of childrens nature C researches into childrens behavior D studies of childhood consumption 29. We may learn from Paragraph 4 that department stores were advised _.A focuses on infant wear and older kids clothes B attach equal importance to different genders C classify consum
41、ers into smaller groups D create some common shoppers terms 30. It can be concluded that girls attraction to pink seems to be _.A clearly explained by their inborn tendency B fully understood by clothing manufacturers C mainly imposed by profit-driven businessmen D well interpreted by psychological
42、expertsText 3Sometimes Sadler breaks into teeny giggles and sometimes she roars with laughter. And sometimes a dozen or so people do the same along with her. But there is nothing funny. Ms. Sadler is a certified laughter leader whose job is to help people laugh. Literally. Sadler is one of about 1,0
43、00 adults in the United States, Canada, and Mexico who have become certified laughter leaders since July 2000 through the World Laughter Tour Inc. The group was formed in 1998 by former psychologist and psychotherapist Steve Wilson and nurse Karyn Buxman. Their intent, then and now, is global influe
44、nce in the practical applications of laughter and humor for health and world peace.If everyone would go back to being a child again by spending 30 minutes laughing, the whole world would be a better place, he adds.In fact, there is a kind of shared universal language that goes something like this: H
45、ee hee ha ha ho ho. Thats just one of the phrases Sadler uses in her workshop.Those who attend one of her classes might find themselves sitting with their mouths open wide, lightly slapping their chests and then their knees with one hand while pointing at people with the other hand and laughing with
46、out making noise.Its sort of as if you were in church and you couldnt laugh and had to squelch it a little bit, says Sadler about the silent laugh, one of the interactive laughter exercises she uses.A louder laughter exercise is the cellphone laugh. Sadler asks participants to walk around the room,
47、holding imaginary cellphone against their ear, pretending to call a friend to perhaps tell them about this crazy laughter club workshop they attended. But instead of talking on their phones, participants laugh into it. And theyre encouraged to make eye contact with one another.The favorite class exercise is often the argumentative laughter Clas
